Selling: NZXT Phantom

**Sc0tty** · 03-28-12, 02:36 PM

Figured I'd try here before I resort to Amazon/Ebay.

Willing to sell my NZXT Phantom [NZXT :: Unique. Unprecendented. Inspired - Phantom Product Detail].
Been having it since September and is in pretty much perfect condition minus the modification I made to the side panel:
From: http://i.imgur.com/tYdrn.jpg To: http://i.imgur.com/DoSPv.jpg

Pretty much just cut out the side fan bracket since putting a fan there would hit my cpu heatsink. Pretty much a clean cut though that you can't notice and, IMO, makes the side look a lot better, furthering your ability to see the inside.

All fan controllers still work perfectly, haven't had any problems with the case at all. Haven't touched the headphone/mic jacks on top, both USB ports work, haven't touched the msata port. All fans are working, with an additional 140mm in the front and 200mm on top. No dents or anything, I just need to dust it off is all.

Case brand new: $130 (newegg)
Additional top fan: $17 (newegg)
Additional front fan: $10
Total new: $157

Asking price: $100 including both fans.

You're selling that beauty?!?!? Mind if I ask why?

**Sc0tty** · 03-28-12, 02:45 PM

Not at all. I'm going to be getting a Switch 810 if I can sell it since I plan to be going big with my next upgrade, going with watercooling on two radiators and although the Phantom can handle a 240 up top, I'd like to be able to put a 360 up top and possibly another 240 at the bottom in the future if I decide to go hardcore with it. And even though the phantom really is a gorgeous case, I find the switch more visually appealing

Hmmm, the Switch 810 is a thing of beauty, as well. If I were in need of a case, I think I'd be happy with either one.

Good luck with the sale!

My case (HAF 932) was just fine until you piqued my interest in that Switch 810. Now I want one. Thanks.

Meh, cooling ability is going to be gimped by the fact it's steel/plastic. If you're really serious about dropping the dough on a water cooling system, you should invest in an aluminum case. Plenty of options out there.
